( Out of Milliways: In which Angel drags Mark along on a shopping expedition. Only fair, as it's Mark's money.)"--any idea where we might find a door to the bar around here

Mark gets a grin on his face, rummaging around in his bag, and pulling out an Oscar. Winking at Angel, he walks over to Faith, and plunks Oscar on the top of the piano. He miiiiiiiight just be a bit smug.
Joanne comes up behind Angel and Mark, boggling for a moment at the piano, and then blinking at Faith. Mmm. Not bad. She remains silent, for the moment, however.
"Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance. Although, um, he did tell me that he really did like the film." He's bright red as he says it, but he's grinning. "Angel won, Roger won, we got Best Score, I won, and we got Best Picture."
Woah. Mark blinks a few times, flailing at Faith's kiss. However, he just crosses his arms, beaming at her, and pulling another Oscar out of his bag, putting it on the piano along with the other. "Hey, I guess putting my life on the big screen pays off every so often." He's a brat, but really, what can you do?
Angel grins, then grabs Joanne's arm and pulls her into the conversation. "You wanted the whole story? This would be who to talk to. Faith, this is Joanne. Joanne, Faith."
"Her idea, more like. Trust me, four days ago I was pretty damn sure there was no way I was gonna make it to the ceremony. I mean, even here, it's a tricky business." And Angel doesn't mind, most of the time.
"I'm really beginning to believe anything of this place." Joanne smiles. "And really, as much as he doesn't admit it, Mark over there is more confident lately. Even when we're all not thinking he's nuts."
Specifically, at the piano.
Rachmaninoff's "Russian Suite For Two Pianos," played on one with Slayer Speed.
She's into it.

But will Faith hear it over the piano?

She looks up at the 'thump', and starts to grin.
"....and did you kick Spielberg like I told you to, young man?"

She's wearing the ring, now.
It's powerless, but still pretty.
